<p>I posted this on UC transfers too.</p>
<p>I desperately want to be at USC instead of UCSB. I'm going to be starting this fall. Due to AP credits, I start with 40 units and will be a sophomore at the end of fall quarter.</p>
<p>Does this mean I can apply to transfer as a junior if I pack my winter and spring quarters and take a CC class or two over the summer? It seems doable. I have 40 now, 54 at the end of this quarter. I would need 36 to get to junior. I can take 4 academic classes each quarter plus a fun class like dance or art to make 18 unit quarters.</p>
<p>Would this work? I already did the orientation at UCSB and its not the place for me, I know USC is (and if not, I live 5 miles away, so not fitting in would mean nothing).</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>PS- I got denied and appeal denied at USC. I can post all my hs grades and stuff if needed. However, I must say I was being pretty extraordinary in HS in terms of working as student union president and founder(actual students rights business, not the student council fluff stuff) second semester, after I had already applied. If only I knew the role would grow so big, I would have emphasized it a lot more.</p>
